Pioneer Pro dead, need advise to migrate
I have a Pioneer Pro that has recently died (I think) Will not boot. It did show some signs of old age before it finally just failed to turn on. The infinate reboot instead og turning off, and blin...
If I remember correctly the Pioneer was running 4.2.27.
For all I know the disks should be fine and the array ok.
Yes, but if you have just the 4 disks installed in a new model if a problem comes up with just one of the disks then it could potentially lead to all your data being unrecoverable.
I understand that.
But putting 4 of the 6 disks in the 314 would work well enough to get the data of the disks safely?
Does it simply boot up in some sort of 4.2x mode or does it need to reassemble the array?
I´m a bit nervous if it would start to perform some operation that erases the disks or formats it automatically to 6.2.
Would it be a much better option to get the 316 instead of the 314?
There´s a big difference in price and it appears that the main difference is the 6 bays instead of 4.
Same cpu and ram, so the performance should be equal?
Some reviews mention the 314 as being very noisy, that does put me a bit off.
Could always just pick up another unit:
Cheaper than the 316 and I believe more powerful
I have that option in mind, and have my eyes set on a second hand unit here in Denmark as well.
Seeing that my own Pioneer has worn out has made me wonder though, how long would I except a"new" second hand unit to last.
I would feel much more confident getting a brand new nas with full warranty.
In what respect would You say the Pro Pioneer is more powerful than the 314/316?
